“We loved working with Diana as she has a natural talent. She has very creative, fresh ideas and she presented many options for our tastes. Diana and her team are very responsive and live up to their commitments. She has access to so many materials, furniture, and products and has strong relationships with reliable contractors. It’s been a very smooth and gratifying experience working with Diana to design our home.”
our
process
Renovating a home is a personal journey—and we're here to make it seamless, collaborative, and inspiring from start to finish. Our process begins by understanding your lifestyle, goals, and vision for the space. We take the time to listen, walk the property, and explore what’s possible both creatively and structurally. From there, we develop a clear design plan and work hand-in-hand with trusted general contractors, architects, project managers, and trades to bring every detail to life. Whether it’s a full gut renovation or a targeted transformation, we manage the complexities from structural planning to finishes and final styling—so you can focus on the excitement of reimagining your home. With thoughtful communication, detailed drawings, and a sharp eye for design, we bridge the gap between construction and creativity to deliver spaces that feel brand new but entirely you.
